[gun sane]

That's how the Brady Bunch might have spun a Dem congresswoman's AD inside the Kentucky Capitol building.

"Though the shot was fired about 2:30pm, Palmer said Combs did not notify KSP until 4:25pm, nearly two hours later. "I don't know what happened there," Palmer said. "I'm not sure why it took so long to get the call."" Hmmm... Maybe the state rep wanted to get her story straight first? What a dope

Easy to get a firearm in a "gov" building?

I saw that and thought: how is it that there is a gunshot indoors at 2:30pm in the state capitol building that no one hears or apparently reports. . .

Idiocy.  She's an idiot as everyone involved down to whoever wrote that article.

I've got a guitar and a handgun sitting in my back bedroom and they've been there a couple of months. I have yet to hear the first note from the guitar......and not a shot fired by the gun. I guess the ones the liberals own are different than mine.

"It happens" she says.....

[macville]

After reading her "explanation" $500 says she dropped the magazine and then pulled the trigger. Why do people think pulling the trigger is a good idea to "clear" a gun? Drop the mag and then rack the slide a few times with a visual check, and then maybe, just maybe, but not necessary, pull the trigger.

"It happens" she says.....

Sounds like something Hillary would say!!!!   Like that great remark she made during the Benghazi hearings when she said  "What difference does it make now?"  I'm sure the families that lost Loved ones that night it meant quite a bit............jmho

"Its an automatic, I need to stick with revolvers." Ruger should release a statement discrediting he story.

It's a good thing she didn't shoot herself  :rolleyes:

Maybe take the ruger and the owners manual and spend a few hours, days or whatever it takes and get intimate with the weapon?

"Why at that particular moment? I kind of had it on my brain. I had it in my purse," Combs said.  "I carried it usually, and I thought I want to put that sucker away. And I did. And I was going through the process as I have been trained to do, had it pointed in the proper direction like I've been trained, was disarming it like Ive been trained to do, and ...like I said I am a gun owner .... it happens."

 

...I bet her instructor was really happy she got those quotes in...

 

... and somehow, I managed to miss the "disarming" lesson during my class...

ain't never happened to anyone I know.  So no, it does not just happen.

[quote name="Mike.357" post="1091958" timestamp="1389240585"]ain't never happened to anyone I know. So no, it does not just happen. [/quote] We know some of the same folks and if it doesn't happen to those knuckle dragging troglodytes, then it definitely doesn't "just happen".
